Grading and Grade Scale
:
Your final grade will be the average of your best three scores on tests I, II, III, IV and V.
Grade Average of Your Best Three Tests
A……………………..95 to 100
A-…………………....90 to less than 95
B+……………………85 to less than 90
B……..………………80 to less than 85
B-………..….………..75 to less than 80
C+…………………….70 to less than 75
C………………………65 to less than 70
C-……………………..60 to less than 65
D+…………………….55 to less than 60
D……………………...50 to less than 55
F……………………....Below 50
For example, if your average is 74.7, your final grade would be a C+.

Extra Credit –
Each of the following will add three points to your final grade. If you complete all three of these tasks, I will add one more point to your final grade. I will not accept any late work under any circumstance.
Hand in any 10 problems assigned Weeks 1 – 4. Present orally one of these problems. Due by Sept 27.
Hand in any 10 problems assigned Weeks 5 – 9. Present orally one of these problems. Due by Nov 1.
Hand in any 10 problems assigned Weeks 10 – 14. Present orally one of these problems. Due by Dec 6.

CATALOG DESCRIPTION:
This course begins with applications of integration (such as volume of a solid of revolution work, arc length, area of a surface of revolution, center of mass) and derivatives of inverse trigonometric functions. Integration by parts, partial fractions and other more advanced integration techniques are introduced, along with a discussion of numerical integration, improper integrals, indeterminate form, sequences and infinite series. A graphing calculator is required for this course, and so is the use of a computer software, such as Mathematica.
Attendance Policy: Full attendance is expected every class meeting. Absence will affect your grade through the class participation grade. If you miss more than eight class meetings for any reason, I will deduct five percentage points off your final grade for each class missed in excess of the eight allowed. If you leave a class meeting early, I will consider whether or not to count you in attendance that day on a case-by-case basis.
Your final grade is based on the average of your best three (out of five) tests. If you miss a test, I will consider giving you a make-up only if a sufficient reason (i.e. documented illness) for missing the test is relayed to me prior to the makeup/retake of the test. (Note: A message must be left by phone or e-mail for consideration.). I will handle each situation on a case-by-case basis.
Test days are considered to be class meetings. Handing in your test is how I will know that you are there on that day.
Withdrawal Policy: If a withdrawal request is made before mid-semester, the registrar will enter a “W” on the student transcript. A withdrawal request will not be approved during the last four weeks of class.
Policy on Cheating: Dishonesty will not be tolerated. If I determine that a student has cheated, I will send a letter to this effect to the provost’s office and will assign a grade of “F” for the course. In the case of identical papers without evidence as to who copied from whom, both papers will share the grade. All students are honor bound to discourage and report suspected cheaters.
Assignments: The student is responsible for all information covered in reading assignments, whether it is covered in lecture or not. All assignments are expected to be completed by the next class meeting unless a due date is specifically announced. I will be lecturing out of the book and my own notes.
